Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy here on Saturday sought the beneficiaries of the welfare schemes to vote for the YSRCP again in the ensuing elections by pressing two buttons, reciprocating their gratitude for pressing 124 buttons by him to release the financial assistance.
In his address at the ‘Siddham’ campaign here in Eluru district, Mr. Jagan said, “I have pressed the button 124 times during my 57-week tenure, releasing ₹2.55 lakh crore under various welfare schemes through the Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT) mode. In the ensuing elections, It is your turn to press the button twice for the YSRCP; one to vote for your MLA and another one for your MP. Do it once for your son (Jagan) in the next elections.“
Hinting at a hike in all the social pensions if the YSRCP was voted to power again, Mr. Jagan Mohan Reddy reiterated, “Voting the opponents can be seen as a consent to put an end to the schemes. Such a mandate will give a new lease of life to Janmabhumi Committees that are rooted in corruption.”
